I have created a program on github to answer this question with examples and code samples: https://github.com/jlinoff/ztables. It shows how to generate z-tables for Standard Normal Distributions and Student-t Distributions. It also shows how to generate the z-values for specific probabilities from those distributions without using any special libraries.

I created a simple python based web server to demonstrate how to use SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler for handling GET/POST requests. It also demonstrates how to build a system that supports embedded python, templates, create custom URLs, execute local scripts and a number of other things.

This bash script downloads, builds and installs a particular version of python in the location of your choice without requiring root permissions. It also creates a virtual environment that you can activate to use it. It is licensed under the terms of MIT open source license.

The bld.sh script provided installs gcc 4.8.4 and boost 1.57.0 on CentOS and Mac OS X for testing. It is another entry in my continuing series of releases for different versions of g++. Hopefully this will make it easier for folks that want to experiment with this version of the GNU C++ compiler to use C++-11 constructs.

This blog describes a simple open source (MIT licensed) web server that demonstrates how browser/server interactions work for GET and POST requests using the python BaseHTTPServer package. It was updated to version 1.2 on 20-May-2015. This software is licensed under the term of the MIT license. Feel free to use it however you wish.

Use it as a starting point to understand the package when creating your own custom web server for handling specific types of requests but recognize that it is not suitable for a production environment. To use it in such an environment you would, at the very least, want to add improve the error handling and add threading support. You would probably also want to add SSL/TLS support.Continue reading Simple python web server to demonstrate GET/POST handling

The bld.sh script provided installs gcc 4.9.1 and boost 1.55.0 on CentOS 6.x, CentOS 5.x and Mac OS X for testing. It is another entry in my continuing series of releases for different versions of g++. Hopefully this will make it easier for folks that want to experiment with this version of the GNU C++ compiler.

lock_files.py is a python command line tool to encrypt or decrypt files using AES encryption and a common password. You can use it lock files before they are uploaded to storage services like DropBox or Google Drive.

The bld.sh script provided installs gcc 4.8.3 and boost 1.55.0 on CentOS 6.x, CentOS 5.x and Mac OS X for testing. It is another entry in my continuing series of releases for different versions of g++. Hopefully this will make it easier for folks that want to experiment with this version of the GNU C++ compiler.
